Adóztassák meg a robotokat az MI okozta tömeges elbocsátások ellen
Bill Gates és több amerikai politikus az intelligens rendszerek és robotok megadóztatását szorgalmazza a mesterséges intelligencia okozta tömeges munkahelyi leépítések és a nyugdíjrendszerek fenyegető összeomlása ellen. Az AI térnyerése nemcsak az adminisztratív és szellemi pozíciókat, de az IT-szektort és a kreatív iparágakat is közvetlenül veszélyezteti, miközben az adóbevételek jelentős része a munkabérek járulékaiból származik.

At risk or responsive: Rethinking unemployment policy
Public services increasingly use predictive algorithms to direct scarce support towards those most at risk. But are these also the people who benefit most from intervention? This column explains how to navigate this trade-off and shows why it matters in practice. Job search counselling gets people into work faster, but has little effect on those at greatest risk of long-term unemployment. Combining predictions of risk and responsiveness can make scarce support substantially more effective, while highlighting the need for different support for those hardest to help.

Europe’s skills ambitions need a regional lens
Skills challenges are not evenly distributed in the EU. National averages often conceal major differences within countries, leading policies to sometimes overlook regional realities. To support focused actions, investment and cooperation, Cedefop has launched the Regional Skills Ecosystems Index.
Europe’s skills ambitions need a regional lens
Europe’s skills ambitions need a regional lens Cedefop launches RESET, the new REgional Skills EcosysTems index Skills shortages, demographic change, the green and digital transitions, and the race for competitiveness are reshaping Europe’s economy and labour markets. But these pressures do not affect all territories in the same way. They play out in regions, where labour markets, education and training systems, business and innovation capacity intersect. This was the starting point for Cedefop’s event Europe’s skills revolution

The adjustment of the Danish labour market to AI has begun
Policymakers are asking whether generative AI is reshaping labour demand, and the literature has found mixed results so far. This column links Denmark’s official IT-use survey to monthly employer–employee records and compares firms that started using AI in 2023 with those that did not. Early adopters fall behind their own pre-adoption employment trend. The decline is most visible in AI-exposed jobs and among new hires, and only significant among small firms. The results indicate that AI is affecting the labour market, even though the effect is not visible in the aggregate statistics.
From Risk to Resilience
From Risk to Resilience Advancing equity, inclusion and wellbeing in education and training How can education and training systems better identify learners at risk, prevent early leaving and create learning environments where everyone feels included, supported and able to succeed? This webinar will bring together Cedefop and the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Culture and Sport (DG EAC) to explore how policy and practice can move from responding to disengagement towards building more inclusive, equitable and resilient education and training systems. Cedefop will launch its new policy
Austria: promoting further education – new funding scheme
Austria: promoting further education – new funding scheme In 2026, Austria introduced a new further education leave and part-time further education leave scheme to replace the previous educational leave scheme with a more targeted funding system. The reform aims to strengthen employability and professional development by supporting employees in acquiring labour market-relevant qualifications. Background and new regulations Until 2025, employees could take educational leave with financial support from Public Employment Service. Evaluations by the Austrian Court of Audit and the Austrian Institute of Economic Research found that, despite substantial funding, the scheme achieved its intended labour market

Rightwing ‘great replacement’ fears mask tech's real great replacement | Jason Stanley
While adherents to the racist theory condemn a shadowy global elite, Silicon Valley is working toward the replacement of humans with AI Across the world, “great replacement” theory has been employed again and again as the political foundation for fascism. Some of its fundamental tenets, such as the view that “whites are a dying minority”, have been amplified by tech billionaires and their platforms. According to the version of this theory most employed in Europe and the United States, white replacement theory, white populations are being “replaced” by non-white populations, a replacement engineered by a shadowy global elite. For example, the need for skilled labor is supposedly being used by global elites as an excuse to bring in non-white immigrants to replace white workers. An AfD-led state government will develop a strategy for Saxony-Anhalt focused on technological upgrading, digital
Reference tables: component approach to labour productivity, UK: 1997 to 2024
These reference tables provide the absolute values underpinning the Component approach to labour productivity, UK: 1997 to 2024 release published on 17 September. They include estimates of labour productivity in both chained volume measures and current prices, consistent with Blue Book 2026 Quarterly National Accounts data. The tables also contain the component approach labour inputs used in productivity calculations, including jobs, workers and total hours worked, alongside contributions showing how changes in individual labour components have contributed to movements in average actual hours worked per job relative to their 2008 average.
Hiding in the mean: AI is adding jobs and removing them at the same time
Estimates of AI's employment effect disagree in size and even in sign. This column argues the disagreement is built into the measurement: AI substitutes for humans on some tasks and complements humans on others, and any single exposure index nets these opposing forces into one number. Classifying US work tasks by what they require of a human and letting the two forces enter separately, both effects appear at once: since 2021, highly substitutable work has grown 3.3 percentage points a year more slowly, and complemented work 3.3 points faster. The adjustment runs primarily through hiring rather than firing, and it lands on the young.

Lifelong career guidance in the new world of work
The PES Network has released a new study examining how Public Employment Services (PES) can support individuals across their working lives in labour markets shaped by digitalisation, green transitions, demographic shifts and non-linear career trajectories.
Measuring what work generative AI does: Survey evidence versus chat logs
The chat logs of AI companies are often used to measure what work AI actually does. This column uses a nationally representative US survey that links generative AI use to workers’ detailed tasks and compares them with task shares derived from Anthropic, Microsoft, and OpenAI chat data. The four sources disagree sharply, largely because chat classifiers cannot see a user’s occupation and therefore classify use into a few generic activities. Chat logs are informative but on their own can misattribute AI use across occupations and cannot substitute for measurement anchored in who the worker is.
How minimum wages reshape firms and their productivity from within
How far can minimum wages rise without damaging jobs and output? This column uses evidence from France to show that firms respond not only by employing fewer workers, but also by increasing training and flattening management hierarchies. A quantitative model suggests that this reorganisation cushions the impact of moderate increases. Higher revenue productivity, however, is not a free efficiency gain, and the adjustment becomes less effective as wage floors rise.
How Labour could solve the youth jobs crisis | Letters
Readers respond to an editorial on creating opportunities for today’s young people to build future careers Your youth unemployment editorial (18 September) sees the crisis clearly, but reaches for the wrong tools. Placements, apprenticeships and work coaches cannot conjure jobs that do not exist. We need macro solutions to macro problems. Youth unemployment is not a crisis of skills or geography. It is insufficient government deficit spending. There is not enough money circulating to employ everyone who wants to work and that is a policy choice, not an accident. Macroeconomists divide the economy into three sectors: government, households and businesses, and the rest of the world. One sector’s spending is another sector’s income. Put simply, government spending is income for the non-government sectors.
Economists See Slightly Steadier Hiring Ahead, but Offer an AI Wage Warning for College Grads
AI’s near-term economic bite is more likely to be felt in the paychecks of degree-holding workers, according to an Indeed Hiring Lab survey of experts. The post Economists See Slightly Steadier Hiring Ahead, but Offer an AI Wage Warning for College Grads appeared first on Indeed Hiring Lab.
New jobs in 140 years of data: Why the AI displacement fear is overstated — and what to worry about instead
Forecasts of AI-driven job destruction rest on counting automatable tasks. But labour markets hire, pay, and fire whole occupations, not tasks – and occupations have proved far more durable than task exposure implies. Drawing on 140 years of Swedish census and register data, this column shows that roughly seven in ten workers today are in occupations whose core functions already existed in the late-nineteenth century. The mass-unemployment fear is overstated; the subtler question is whether today’s technological wave still generates the durable, specialised new work that earlier ones did.
AI Exposure Isn’t Squeezing Advertised Pay in the US — It’s Boosting It
